    I have heard good comments about the Lowrance Gen 2 thus far. Buddy got bow and console units recently and raves about them.

    My advice is get the biggest screen you can afford regardless of the brand.

    i used lowrance for 25 years and just switched to birds. do your home work and ask a ton of questions on here and other boards and i think you'll see why i switched.
